What makes our Seafolk yarn so unique is our slow dying process using sea water from the Pacific Ocean and locally harvested plants and seasonal ingredients. Because of this each batch is considered to be one of a kind and cannot be repeated. Please keep this in mind when purchasing yarn for a particular project, taking care to acquire enough.

This wool is a bled of different breeds that contain (but are not limited to) Suffolk, Dorset, Cheviot, Arcott and Corriedale from sheep that are raised on Canadian farms.The yarn is then processed in a family operated mill, and delivered to our shop here on the West Coast of Vancouver Island.

Once it arrives, it is then either left completely natural or dyed naturally using salt water from the Pacific Ocean and locally harvested plants, extracts or other raw materials.Any dyes that can not be sourced locally are only purchased from suppliers who produce ethical, sustainable and fair trade products.

There is very little processing involved, so the yarn retains its rustic beauty.
